SUMMARY NOTES IN THE RECORD s20271  (Duration: 23:43:59.988)

Comments:
  Records s20271, s20272, s20273 and s20274 are from the same patient.
  This is the first record.
  Lead 0:
    This record shows multiple episodes of ischemia which
    typically show T-wave peaking followed by significant
    ST depression. Some episodes trigger the ischemic
    episode definition during the ST elevation, while
    others trigger only at the onset of ST-depression.
    In still other cases there is a short interval of
    "near-baseline" ST between the elevations (peaking
    of Ts) and depressions which causes a double counting
    of the biphasic episode as two separate episodes.
    This occurs at: 6:41:32, 16:48:58, 18:33:00,
    21:21:48, 21:36:10 and 23:36:22.
    Physiologically each of these represents a single
    episode of ischemia. At 15:18:52, there is a short
    axis shift which interrupts the terminal portion of
    an ischemic episode, resulting in artifactual early
    termination of the ischemic episode, and the definition
    of a second episode.
  Lead 1:
    At approximately 6:41:36 the terminal portion of the
    ischemic episode is split into additional episodes -
    but all represent the resolution phase of the ischemic
    episode. T wave peaks, T-wave peaking decreases, and
    finally ST depression resolve.
    At 7:21:20, double positive peak in ST trend at beginning
    of this episode is created by the superposition of
    rate-related ST-depression. At 15:18:52, see note above
    for lead 0. At the end of this record the data has a
    number of episodes labeled as "rate-related".
    At 16:52:48, axis shift annotation set between the end
    of ischemic episode and local reference.
  Electrode locations were not recorded.
